DANCING TO HIP HOP

 

I like breakin’ and poppin’

And dancing to Hip hop

At Sixty I should be stoppin’

As I’m down for a Hip op

SHE WAS A TAXI DANCER

 

She was a Taxi dancer

10 cents a dance

He was a patron

And they were dance partners

Each night he would be there

A pocket full of tickets

Each night he looked for her

And they danced all night

He lived for the dances

All day he watched the clock

All night he danced with her

He thought she was special

He hoped he was too

But she was a Taxi dancer

10 cents a dance

She liked to dance

But she liked her commission more

He was just a pocketful of tickets

Nothing more than a cash cow

Who lost his heart

To a dime-a-dance girl

GENETIC MARKERS

Scientists say they have discovered

Genetic markers that indicate athleticism

I think if they take a close look at mine

I will have markers for Couch potatoism 

PORTMANTEAU

 

I was looking for a word

That summed up slogan or motto

But something more pithy

In the end I settled on Slotto

GRACILE

Moving Gracefully

Like a snow white swan

On a glassy lake.

You came into my life

 

Like an angel

Descending from heaven

On pure white wings

You changed me forever

 

But your gracile elegance

Mesmerized me

And blinkered me

To your true nature

 

Because hidden from me

Beneath the surface

And belying the grace

You were no angel 

SHE SPOKE SWEETLY

 

She spoke sweetly

With a songbirds melody

But within the beauty

One word could slay me

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 150

 

As I was going up Pippen Hill,

Pippen Hill was dirty.

There I met a pretty miss

And she was very flirty

 

As I was going down Pippen Hill,

I left the girl so flirty

Pippen Hill was quite clean

But the girl was very dirty
